Thursday, March 24, 2011. Day 1 began with me starting a discussion with the class about drinking water. I asked "who drinks water? And usually everyone raised their hands, so I followed it up with "where does that water come from? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Http:/ umk12tfs.blogspot.com/. Http:/ www.stevenhoffenson.com.

Steven's TF Blog: Earthquake!
http://ypsdtf-shoffens.blogspot.com/2010/11/earthquake.html
Friday, November 19, 2010. Can we predict where and when they will occur? What dangers do earthquakes pose to people? How can we as designers and engineers prevent some of these dangers? In Mrs. Karalash's class, we answered all of these questions together as a class, and we basically told the students exactly what to write on their worksheets (though some still neglected it); in Mrs. Buckwalter's class, we let the students come up with their own answers (and gave them some time to do so).

Friday, November 20, 2009. First Problem of the Week. This led into the idea of "allowed error" or "tolerance": how much variation from the exact number we can tolerate in our design. I concluded by discussing the reasons for this and a few examples of products that have large or small tolerance. Which was followed by an exaggerated and sarcastic flinging up of the hands and, "of course, anything for you! Which graph corresponds to each glass? Tuesday, November 3, 2009.

Tuesday, October 20, 2009. I chose to ignore S because (1) she didn't raise her hand, and (2) I had already answered that question at least twice. She noticed that I ignored her and said: "you gonna look at me and not answer my question? Wednesday, October 7, 2009. The Finite Element Method and Problem Solving in Geometry.

Monday, October 18, 2010. Welcome to Middle School. The biggest difference from high school that I noticed was in the maturity level of the students. When I told the students that it was okay to ask questions throughout the talk, I ended up getting a lot of comments and questions that were totally off topic. I liked the enthusiasm and the way the students were willing to be open with me, but I'd like to see that energy in a more directed manner. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Welcome to Middle School.

Tuesday, February 23, 2010. Transformations in Shaun White and Tetris. Snow days are awesome, and the great University of Michigan should start having them - it was a wonderful day until I realized that I'm still responsible for doing research, so I went into (my) school anyway. I'll make up my missed day in two weeks (barring any more distractions). Wednesday, February 3, 2010. The MShoe, Take 3. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Http:/ umk12tfs.blogspot.com/.
